Re: Help: How to remove blank between '7F'x delimiters using SED

The issue is that the delimiter is '7F', when I use SED or GAWK, the
delimiter character will work to delete previous character.

Will it, now?

Is there any special option to mask this funcationality?

Maybe you're thinking of typing on the command line? That character isn't
magical in strings, but it might have effects on the command line when
typing, in which case, consider using ^V to escape it.
